I bought the fan but didnt get the remote, do I need to buy a seperate thing for the fan or just the remote for it to work ?

When I bought the fan, I had a remote. The original remote got stepped on. So I had to buy another. They guy who put my fan up was able to get the new remote to work with fan.

I purchased the fan which came with a remote. I purchased an additional remote so I could have one it at each of the locations I would need it. Just make sure you are purchasing the correct remote for your fan.

I don't completely understand your question, but when I purchased my fan the remote-if I remember correctly and I have to say that I cannot remember-was a separate purchased from the fan. That is if your question is about the remote switch unit. If it is you might check the battery on the remote to see if it has the proper voltage (if the battery is dead or not) and double check the switches on the inside of the fan and the switches on the remote to see if they are set the same.

The fan doesn't ship with any remote features. So it would need to added by you.

Hi there. I assume you are talking about the device that is inside the fan itself. With my fan, the Concept II, there were two different remotes available for fans that looked identical on the outside. I had to call the company and clarify which was the correct version for my specific fan. My advice would be to call Minka directly at 1(800) 221-7977 and talk with them about what you need. Once you have the right part number, you can come back to Amazon to order it.

I do not think it matters what type of fan you have. This device should work as long as you have space in the mount of your ceiling fan to store the receiver, which will receive a signal from the remote control. If your fan comes with a remote, you may end up disabling your own remote and replacing the remote with this device. I don't see why it should not work. This remote is communicating with its own set of sender and receiver, assuming that the fan remote does not co-exists and gets disabled.

Hi Leslie, Well that's a good question. I would call the manufacturer of the remote to find out. My new fan did not come with a remote that's why I bought this one. The description said it would work with almost all new ceiling fans. I don't see why it couldn't replace an existing remote unless your fan is older.

There is no remote with the fan. Home center stores carry universal remotes, which can be install yourself with some skills. Hunter fans better built.

It does not come with a remote. I don't know if you can install one on it, but we love this fan even without a remote. We use it almost every day.

No the remote is not. There is a kit also that is seperate. Beautiful fan though

It does not. I looked for one too after reading that review but no where on box does it indicate that a remote comes with the ceiling fan. It wasn't that important to me though.

There seem to be conflicting answers here. Does anyone know if you need to install a receiver or not? How would the fan know to be controlled by this remote otherwise? It's currently hooked up to our existing remote which is broken. So how do I "tell" the new remote to control this fan?

It does not include the remote. I paid $50 for the light kit. It is a beautiful fan and very quiet.

We did not get a remote for this fan. Instead, we put a dimmer switch on the wall to adjust the speed without having to reach up to the fan itself.

No. Remote is separate. I ordered one with it and it was easy to add in. I've never had a hunter fan come with remote included.

No that I see. It is bundled as a package. I had to buy the whole kit and didn't need the control portion for the fan since I was just adding another remote to control the fan we already had when we added a new entry. It beats buy a whole fan though...

The remote was included with the fan. The model number on the back of the remote is UC7084T. Hope this helps.

It worked fine for me as a replacement for a remote that went bad. It comes with some components for the ceiling fan, but I did not need them.
